XCPUScalar 2007 allows you to dynamically scale the processor speed of your handheld Pocket PC 2003, 2003 SE, and Windows Mobile 5. Use Auto Scaling to assign speeds to different CPU loads, It uses the power of the XSCALE or TI OMAP processor and unlocks its dynamic scaling capabilities. You can reduce the speed of your handheld or increase its speed automatically depending on CPU usage of your applications. By scaling the processor speed down, you can increase the battery live between recharges or increase the speed when you need more power for playing games or multimedia programs that require more CPU power. The speed can be scaled from 100 to 728MHZ and upto 265MHz bus speeds. You can even shut the LCD while listening to music to save more battery life.

If your PDA has its own power setting, please set it to "Maximum Performance" or a setting that is not "Auto" to prevent conflicts with XCPUScalar.

Autorecovery from soft lockups when using unstable speeds
XCPUScalar will now auto detect a soft lockup if speed was unstable and will automatically revert to your PDA's default speed after a soft reset.

Support from 100 to 728MHz and PXA270 processor support:
XCPUScalar now has support for all popular frequencies from 100 to 728MHz. PXA250 XScale processors can be scaled upto 500MHz and PXA255, PXA261, PXA262 or PXA263 XScale processors upto 530MHz at 265MHz bus speed and PXA270 processors upto 728MHz.

Change Colors of CPU Meter to match your Today Screen scheme Colors:

This option was designed specifically for the Ipaq 39xx, Ipaq 415x, Asus A620 and some other PDA's that flicker when the speed changes. Enabling this option should virtually eliminate screen flicker.

Support for higher bus speeds:
Bus speeds upto 265MHz are supported.

Auto Scale with CPU load:
Power on demand, XCPUScalar will now automatically calculate the CPU load on your PocketPC and switch speeds automatically depending on whether an application requires less or more power. XCPUScalar will scale the speeds automatically and throttle speeds as applications demand power. XCPUScalar throttles down to idle speed when there is no activity giving you the maximum battery power consumption. You can assign your own speeds to different CPU loads as you desire.
XCPUScalar calculates all factors and normalizations automatically and takes the guess work out of using auto scaling.

CPU Meter and WisBar / ICBar / GigaBar or other TaskBar Manager Integration:
XCPUScalar will now install an animated CPU meter icon on your TaskBar (this is the blue title bar area), you can monitor the CPU load and speed when running any application. CPU Meter detects other taskbar managers and will install its icon in their taskbar area.

Health Meters:
At a glance look at all the vital signs of your Pocket PC at a click of a button for quick access.
